We have visited a fair few zoo's and Chester Zoo is one of my favorites. The animals and their enclosures all looked well kept. Its such a big zoo that we spent two days here as we didn't want to have to rush round or come home having missed anything. I will agree about wearing comfortable shoe and it is a lot of walking but so enjoyable. Definately a great zoo to visit.

We travelled for 2+hours and felt it looked tired. Signage could have been much much better as signs only showed perhaps 1 or 2 exhibits .would have been helpful to have directions further afield. There was a map but not great. I know it’s a zoo and animals are always on show but we were disappointed that we saw no elephants out . Chimps were all inside and fed inside. Orangutans also all inside. Jaguars inside bu5the inside enclosure was good.plenty for children to do with several play areas that were being used and loved the idea of the junior go ape style course. We did my have children with us but could see the attraction to these were popular. Monorail not working as we pre paid for it they said we would receive automatic refund. Boat ride not operational. Refreshments eg coffee was not to expensive quite fair actually. Plenty of staff around for advice and guidance on exhibits.enjoyed th3 indoor tropical realm with free flying birds. Don’t think I would travel that far again in a hurry. If local then it’s worth the trip. Parking good access good for wheelchairs and buggies. Big souvenir shop.

Really good zoo with loads of animals of different kinds. There’s something for everyone and the layout is really tidy and nice. Map is easy to follow and the shop at the front is huge. Prices are what you’d expect from an attraction but overall the day was really good.
